Valentines Day Strawberry Fudge

Ingredients

Prep Time: 15 Minutes

Cook Time: 7 Minutes

Chill Time: 2 Hours

Yields: About 16 1-inch Squares

  • 1 Container Buttercream Frosting 16 ounces
  • 3/4 Cup Red Candy Melts
  • 3/4 Cup Strawberry Flavored Pink Candy Melts
  • 1 Teaspoon Strawberry Extract
  • Valentine’s Mix Non-Pareils Sprinkles
  • Pink and Red Heart Sprinkles optional

Items Needed:

  • 8 x8 Square Pan
  • Parchment Paper

Instructions

  • Place the red candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl and heat on high, in the microwave, for 2-3 minutes or until smooth when stirred. Stop every 15-30 seconds to stir during the melting process to ensure the candy melts don’t overcook.
  • Follow step one for the pink candy melts, keeping the two colors separated.
  • Remove the lid and film from the frosting and place it in the microwave for 45 seconds to 1 minute, or until fully melted and smooth. Set aside ½ a teaspoon of uncooked frosting if using the heart sprinkles.
  • Add the extract to the frosting and stir well.
  • Place half of the frosting in with the red candy melts and the other half with the pink candy melts.
  • Stir each color vigorously until fully mixed.
  • Line your pan with parchment paper, making sure to leave some overhang.
  • Alternate pouring in the two colors in random spots, pausing to tap the pan in between so it evens out and removes bubbles.
  • Once all your chocolate mixtures have been poured in and evened out, sprinkle the top of the fudge with as many Valentine’s themed non-pareils as you like.
  • Place in the fridge to chill for 2 hours or until hardened.
  • If desired, use the set aside frosting and place a dab on the back of a heart sprinkle, and press it into the middle of each fudge square you cut for a cute addition!
  • Enjoy!
